What a gorgeous show. Seeing the men playing dominoes and the vendors😍...it was PR but it felt so familiar to anyone from the islands.

Happy Black History Month!!!

If given a choice, I'd choose to be a Black woman every single time.

First time seeing this clip from Dr. King's 39th birthday. His friend saying "We're gonna celebrate Martin Luther King's day today" feels so haunting and beautiful since this would be is last birthday.

My carrier, T-Mobile sent this text a little while ago and it feels like someone in marketing has a PhD in pettiness .

What a cover! In a world that often treats Black women with little regard, my new book defiantly & unapologetically declares that Black women are worthy & that Black feminist thought remains relevant & necessary. www.bloomsbury.com/us/spaces-fo... 35% off Discount code: GLR AT8

I’ll never forget the transcendent feeling of singing Total Praise with my college choir. May his memory be a blessing.

I know Total Praise is Richard Smallwood's most famous song but "Thank You" is the one you listen to when things get heavy. IYKYK.

If you're a praying person, please pray for my country. The trajectory and strength looks horrific.
What we're witnessing with #Melissa is ultra rare in the history of known hurricanes in the Atlantic. This level of sustained intensity and feasting on every joule of ocean heat content without any real disruption is incredible.

Not hyperbole: Jamaica is facing a generational catastrophic event.

My retired mother volunteers at a library and today she was excited to share that someone returned two books: Mine and another about Justice Sotomayor. These are the things that make my little nerd heart smile.

I'm always amazed (and deeply grateful) when I consider what elders bravely faced when they were still adolescents.

Pray for ya girl.🫠 I might have to break my "no going to the office on Saturday" rule for the first time, but this book is worth it. I'm excited to share it soon.

"My lived experience makes me a better scientist. It sharpens my research. It deepens my compassion. It fuels my teaching.
I’ve faced parole boards and dissertation committees. I’ve survived prison, rejection, and structural racism. I’m not afraid of grant panels, or of students who need grace."

Finished this yesterday and WOW!!! These characters are so well developed, and the plot structure works so well. From beginning to end, this book was satisfying, complex, and tender. It's definitely in my top 3 books for the year.
